Sci-Fi Revoltech – 031 – Iron Man War Machine

chaz — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 00:04:31 +0000

Iron Man isn’t complete without his buddy, War Machine. Once again, another great figure by Revoltech. The articulation is slightly restricted due to the War Machine armour, but it’s all good.

Sci-Fi Revoltech – 024 – Iron Man Mark VI

Revoltech has really upped their game in the past year with some quality characters. Iron Man Mark VI really looks good. The articulation makes for some nice poses.

Marvel Universe Masterworks Sentinel

Hasbro’s Marvel Universe Masterworks Sentinel is another gem in the Marvel Universe line. The figure is about the same size as Galactus which came before. I love the box art for the retail version of Sentinel. The retail version also comes with a Wolverine figure. Wolverine looks puny when compared with the Sentinel. But we [...]

It took awhile to arrive, but it was worth the wait. Dr. Doom and Scarlet Spider look great! More pics after the jump.

STGCC 2011 Madness

chaz — Mon, 29 Aug 2011 00:38:27 +0000

It’s been a week since STGCC and the one thing that’s still vivid in my mind is Hot Toy’s booth. Hot Toys was the highlight of STGCC for me. They brought down their concept booth they debuted at the Hong Kong Con as well as some exclusives for 1/6 Scale collectors. What a privilege. STGCC [...]

Hot Toys 1/6 Scale Spider-Man 3 – Spider-Man

chaz — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 00:32:58 +0000

I finally managed to pick up my Hot Toys Spiderman over the weekend and I was not dissappointed. Spidey came packaged in Hot Toy’s recent ‘shoebox’ type packaging. Simple and easy to open. The cover of the box was pretty impressive. Spot varnish as well as a ‘pop-up’ black spider symbol. Nice. Spidey comes with [...]

Hong Kong Toy Shopping and Scores!

It’s been a week since I came back from my trip to Hong Kong and I’ve finally managed to sort out my stash and take some photos. Thanks to a personal run-through from Shuan of his great Hong Kong Toy Shopping guide. Toy shopping was a breeze and I managed to score some nice items. [...]

SDCC 2011 – Marvel Universe 3.75′ inch Figures

chaz — Fri, 29 Jul 2011 05:58:37 +0000

SDCC 2011 came and went over the weekend and Marvel gave us a peak of upcoming figures coming out in the year ahead. Like the 3 Avengers in the pic above. I’m not too keen on their uniforms though. The Future Foundation (formerly Fantastic Four) is one I am looking out for. Their uniforms call [...]

Hot Toys 1/6 Scale Thor

chaz — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 00:51:15 +0000

Marvel’s Norse god and superhero Thor from the recent movie has been released by Hot Toys and he looks great! Thor was packed nicely in what I like to call a ‘shoebox’. Packaging was good, but nothing to shout about. The general figure and clothing was decent. Though the joints in the body I got [...]
